The Lowrance Point-1 antenna provides best-in-class GPS/GLONASS positioning along with industry-leading, 10Hz GPS performance for smooth and accurate location updates. Equipped with an integrated electronic compass with GPS, the antenna provides accurate heading for stable chart orientation in the Heading Up mode, improved Course Over Ground at low speeds and radar overlay on your chart. All of these features are possible with affordable module options that easily connect through an NMEA 2000® network.

I got exactly what I was after, external GPS puck with heading sensor that allowed me to have radar overlay on my HDS7 chart. Boat icon on screen now also responds faster, showing my heading and updates faster. It is a great alternative to a $500.00 compass heading sensor for those that want the radar overlay. Point 1 will not give you MARPA though, you will have to spend the bigger bucks for that. Delivered as expected at the right cost and easy to install. Bring on the Tuna!
